2. Explain that dealignment is characterized by increased identification by the electorate as Independents.
3. Determine if the percentage of self-classified Independents (40 percent in 2010s) are pure Independents or actual partisans, citing data presented in Table 6.3, Voting Behavior of Partisans and Independents, 1992-2008).

Answer to Question 2
